AMA: My startup idea blew up on hacker news

So a week ago I made a post on HN to present my startup idea. I didn’t expect much but it hit the front page and I got lots of attention.

Here is a link to the post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32937523
And here is the idea itself: https://taku-app.com

That’s what I got in 1 day:

  • 4500 website visits
  • 100 subscribers to the launch
  • 82$ in donations
  • 3 products that got in touch and asked to use the product already
  • 2 investors approached me.

I'm really excited and wanted to share this and maybe help someone with insights - AMA!

          I think yeah it's possible to do it. If you wanna chat in detail shoot me an email to ablay@taku-app.com

    Go and check out his website! I think that this is an amazing tool, to connect human beings over the internet. I just chatted with Ablay for a little bit using his widget and I was genuinely shocked that I got a real person on the line. If you own a website or business of any sort, you need to have his tool. It made me feel special when I knew that I was talking to someone real, and even compelled me to write this mini advertisement. Im genuinely excited about this product.
